The routes

Mixed climb up the north of the Pelmo, established over 2 days. Pelmoon starts up the obvious gully to the right of Forca rossa gully. A bolt on the right gully wall has been placed at the start of the...

Petri Heil is a beautiful rock climb up excellent rock in an amazing setting. The route climbs close to the famous Demuthkante up the lefthand side of the North Face of Cima Ovest di Lavaredo.

This easy and beautiful walk through lush woods leads to the lakes Aial and Pianozes. Deer, the true kings of the forest, may be encountered along the way. The walk can be carried out even when it snows.

This short route is significantly harder than Dallago and rises up the large pillar that characterises the wall, tackling the most compact and best rock. From the top of the pillar it shares the same finish as Dallago, but alternatively...

A beautiful, steep and demanding gully which is surprisingly skiable and cuts down the West Face of Piccolo Lagazuoi, to the left of the Trapezio and directly down to Forte Tre Sassi. By descending behind the fort and crossing the ...

Piccolo Principe is a mix between traditional and modern: traditional for the protection (pegs and natural pro along the pitches, bolts on the belays), and modern due to the direct line which searches for the beauty of climbing up the...

Great route on the right arête of north-east face of Cima Tosa. The climb has three distinct sections: the starting chimney (often wet), the gray central pillar and the wonderful and vertical final pitches that breach the overhangs and lead...

This route takes the arête up the large, compact pillar on the left-hand side of the Lastoni dei Formin. The first section rises to the right up the corners before reaching the arête proper. The route becomes progressively harder and...

Difficult and exposed climbing leads through the yellow eastern pillar of Cima dell’Auta, nicknamed “Pilastro Parmenide” after the famous philosopher Elea. The first section climbs free a series of slabs to the base ledge of the rock face, then continues...

Beautiful and difficult 4-pitch route established and freed by Maurizio 'Manolo' Zanolla up the side of the large central corner at Tognazza (Passo Rolle, Dolomites).

Mixed ice climb, protected by bolts on the lower section, put up in 2010 by Valentin Riegler and Hannes Lemayr and freed in winter 2013 by Martin and Florian Riegler.

This is a nice route, somewhat harder and less repeated than Geo and Brunsin. Two bolts protect the cruxes, but the fifth pitch, which takes natural pro, is not to be underestimated.

Prati di Camera is an easy itinerary in a wonderful environment that often offers great snow and is ideal for anyone who is beginning to ski off-piste. This itinerary is very different from others described in this guide book since...

Great route first ascended by Christoph Hainz and Kurt Astner in August 2009, then freed by the duo in July 2010. The route follows an obvious and exposed line to the left of the Spigolo Scoiattoli arête and offers, according...

An extremely popular mid-grade route. It initially follows the large corner at the base of the arête, then continues up slightly to the left of the arête, before moving right to avoid the roofs. This traverse and corner above constitute...

The icefall is clearly visible when descending from Forcella Col dei Bos (2331m) towards beautiful Val Travenanzes: look up westwards just before Malga Travenanzes (1965m) to see the drip.Psyco Killer is a "perfect" line which, when in condition, stands out...
